Painful Spines Respond to Non-Surgical Care like Chiropractic

06/06/2017

Guidelines for back pain care
emphasize non-surgical care treatments
like spinal manipulation. So who provides non-surgical care? A new
study just came out and said that “Chiropractic is one of the
largest manual therapy professions in the US and internationally.” (1)So
true! Chiropractors like your Auburn chiropractor at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C.
accept that role. Your Auburn
chiropractor helps Auburn back pain and neck pain
patients get relief of the pain and enhance
their quality of life.

24% of US adults pursue chiropractic
care in their lifetime. 8.4% of US adults sought
chiropractic care in the past year. (1) Why don’t more patients get
chiropractic care? The back pain care guidelines written by
groups like the American College of Physicians and the American Pain Society call
for non-surgical methods like spinal manipulation. (3)Even
the physical therapists are upset! “Although therapies
delivered by PTs are promoted as a first-line treatment for low back pain, PT
referral rates remain low.” Only 10.1% of primary care provider visits for low
back pain resulted in a physical therapy referral. A patient
with Medicare or Medicaid was even less likely to get a referral. Where
do these low back pain and leg pain
patients go? What do they do about their low back pain and leg pain sciatica?
They received opioid prescriptions more
and more. (4) Your Auburn chiropractor offers
a non-surgical, non-drug way to pain relief.

Why Patients See a Chiropractor

But what motivates a visit to a
chiropractor like your Auburn chiropractor? Spine pain. 63% for
back pain and 30.2% for neck pain. (That sounds correct for Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C.,
too. Our Auburn chiropractic patients see the back pain specialists at Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. as back
and neck pain relief specialists!) Further,
adults over 30 and those with spine pain were more prone to check
in with a chiropractor in the past year. 23%
of the chiropractic patients also received a prescription for their
back pain. 35% of them used over the counter medications for
the issue which they were seeing the chiropractor. 63.8% reported
that the combined care for their
spinal pain – medical and chiropractic – was helpful.(1) Your
